Listen: The Flaming Lips and New Oklahoma City Band Horse Thief Cover Each Other

The Flaming Lips, a veteran Oklahoma City band, are passing the baton to a newer class. They recently teamed up with young OKC act and Bella Union labelmates Horse Thief for a pair of covers-- the Flaming Lips doing a version of Horse Thief's "I Am the Bear" and Horse Thief doing a version of the Flaming Lips' "Try to Explain" from new album The Terror. (Horse Thief's album Grow Deep, Grow Wild was released on the same day as The Terror.)
